N&M Transfer

Fairly alluring benefits start pretty quickly and the pay is fair-to-middling. Once you have a grasp of the basic daily functions after the first couple of months, if you're receptive, the employees that care will continue to unofficially train you so you're able to achieve the maximum dollar-to-effort ratio. It's by no means a mentally taxing operation for those of average+ intellect. However, if you hold the belief that capitalism has gone too far and 40 hrs a week is plenty, beware. They claim a right to dictate mandatory overtime on a day-to-day basis with 30 minutes of notice and an indeterminate length. Though 2 additional hours is typically the minimum, it has hit 4-6 hours additional in the past. All in all, management is fairly relaxed and the environment allows for a "keep to yourself" or "one of the guys" personality. As others have said, if you have the chance to work here, do so but I'll add that not everything is transparent and upfront until you've experienced it.

I work in the warehouse on 3rd shift and I've been here about 6 months. I'm always busy, there's always something to do. The foremen and supervisors are all solid people willing to help with whatever I need. The normal, hourly employees are either the same or grumpy old dudes. 

There's a lot of OT if you want it and, unfortunately there's a lot of turnover. The warehouse is pretty dirty. The equipment is a mixed bag but generally I find if mine has a problem and I make an effort to report it frequently it gets fixed. Safety could be better, but I'm super picky about safety stuff.

The benefits are surprisingly good and affordable. The pay could be better but its not terrible (I started at $20 and recently got a 50 cent raise. I'm supposed to get another 50 cents at a year). After my lengthy 120 day probationary period I received a week of vacation.. it resets at my 1 year anniversary.

Overall I think its a decent company. The pay could be better and the environment could use some safety tweeks and be cleaner. I don't mind working hard and putting in overtime, so if you're the same it would probably be a good fit for you. 

A typical day involves loading and unloading trailers until you can do it in your sleep. Then there's the occasional manual labor. There are sometimes windows, shower doors, foam rolls, and other unpalletized freight to move.

Some of the foremen are nice, some of them rude, so good luck. Some of the people there are grumpy old men, and some of them are young guys who mess around a little too much, but the people there are still mostly alright.

The hardest part of the job is probably the rare uncooperative freight your forks just don't want to move. That and the trailers that get overstuffed by the routers that the foremen don't always want to pull stuff from. 

The most enjoyable part of the job is probably the trailers with easy freight that are satisfying to load or unload, especially when there aren't a lot of forklifts around so you can go as fast as want. That and the occasional chat with co-workers.

If you take the job, please come back and upvote this after I said DRIVER BEWARE and you were warned. The hiring recruiter out of Wisconsin is not very wise, has any grasp on the industry nor doesn't warrant any logical sense when hiring. This place will work you to death and not pay you a cent. The routes are impossible not be on time, though they strive and claim their "on time" percentage as the motto of the company. Most drivers here only work here because they are student drivers-recently graduating, getting the one year they want for the resume or not knowing any better. The other type of driver that works here are people who have burned bridges everywhere else and they have no other choices. Think I'm kidding, go ahead and work here. Just remember, like I asked, come back and upvote  this. No shame in being humble, but it will help save good working people and their family a lot of disappoinment and hardship.

Best of luck to you!

They  say you control how much you make because of how drivers are laid but they limit deliveries and spread you out so far that when you have a good day lined up then it goes downhill fast. Trailers come half hazardly loaded with freight falling over from not being stacked or multiple skids going to different customers stacked on top of each other, and not in the correct order. The dispatch department throws darts at a map to decide where you’re going that day, well maybe not the route would probably make more sense if they did do that. The potential to make money here is great but at the end of the day it’s out of your hands because dispatch will send you an hour out of the way to make a one skid pickup then not understand why your upset about it. The only reason I haven’t left yet is because they’re not super strict on when you start within reason. But I’d assume they will change that. Thus making this job have no plus sides other than driving back and forth all over the place. Save yourself the trouble. Go some where else. 

N&M transfer is a good company. If you have a chance to work here then you should.

 The problem is if you are a non CDL driver is where the company is not good. They will fight you on hours, because they don’t want to give you any. They will criticize your pay sheet because they need a reason to figure out how to cut your hours. The whole goal is not to use the straight truck unless one of the CDL drivers doesn’t want to take the load. Don’t get me wrong i enjoyed the job. I wanted this to be my last job, but quickly i started to see past the shine and I didn’t like what i saw. 

If you are your young without bills and responsibilities or if you want to break into the trucking field this position is for you, but if you have bills and Responsibilities you will go broke working here. 

I just wish i would have known what i know now. The Non CDL position was a waste of my skills and time. 

A typical day at work would include a safety inspection on your assigned forklift, load trailers in order, according to company manifests,unload trailers as needed , palletize freight, stock warehouse and main offices with supplies and reorder as needed. Every one took their turn about once a week expediting freight to businesses and residents in a timely fashion, using sprinter van, or straight truck with lift gate.
Learned to manage time, different ways to secure freight, short cuts in routes, and how to get along with co-workers.
The hardest part of this job was unloading certain pella windows, sometimes weighing between 400 and 500 pounds. the most enjoyable part was working with co- workers.

NM has a lot of fringe benefits that help the employee and their family. It's wonderful having an on-site health clinic that even spouses not covered by NM insurance can use at absolutely no cost. Definitely a great benefit. They also have a great 401K match.  NM also provides a uniform/tool/safety footwear allowance each year and small holiday gifts. The owner is great and really cares about employees; however some of the supervisors could use additional management training on how to deal with issues among employees that contribute to a less than ideal work environment.  A lot of the leadership has been with NM for a long time but that was when it was much smaller and don't have the knowledge/experience that come with a larger operation. 

I'm beyond grateful to be an N&M employee. I've been given endless opportunities to learn and advance my career. The managers have always had an open door and make any effort they can to help their employees grow. I've always felt like I belong here and you can definitely tell it is a family owned company. The atmosphere is both honest and positive. Even when we are hit hard by a snow storm, everyone works as a team to get things back to normal operation. It's so awesome to see departments that come together and work together seamlessly.
